Questions About Chiavari Armchairs
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024
    A Chiavari chair is a dining chair with a specific set of characteristics. Usually crafted out of wood, the chair features carvings that give it the jointed look of bamboo. The chair gets its name from Chiavari, Italy, where furniture maker Giuseppe Gaetano Descalzi first created the style in 1807. Find a collection of Chiavari chairs on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Chiavari chairs became popular after they were used at the wedding reception for John and Jackie Kennedy. Since then, as they have been used at the Oscars and other celebrity ceremonies they have only gained more traction.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    The difference between Chiavari and Tiffany chairs is a matter of terminology. These two names refer to the same type of chair but have different origins. Chiavari comes from the name of the Italian village where the original designer of the chair, Giuseppe Gaetano Descalzi, was born. How the chairs came to be called Tiffany chairs is not as clear, but it was likely inspired by the name of the luxury jewelry maker Tiffany & Co. The association may be due to the fact that Chiavari chairs are often used at weddings and Tiffany's is a leading producer of bridal jewelry, or because, like the jewelry house, the chairs inspire thoughts of sophistication and luxury.
